CAUTION! Make sure to wear ANSI-approved safety impact eyeglasses when performing any assembly of the Cut Off Saw. Also, when installing or replacing the Saw Blade (23F) (not included) wear heavy duty work gloves to avoid accidental cuts to the hands and fingers.

4.Mount the new Saw Blade (not included) on the Blade Shaft (16F). IMPORTANT: Make sure the arrow shown on the Saw Blade points in the same direction as the arrow shown on the Blade Guard (19F). (See Figure A.)
